I am work package leader in a four year project
investigating mathematical models used to assess toxicological
effects of chemical mixtures. The results obtained in this
project will most likely be utilized in future toxicological
risk assessment of chemical mixtures.

I work at setting up models for better assessment of toxicity in
general. I use such mechanistic techniues as pharmacological
modulation e.g. with inhibitors or activators to shut down or
modulate specific pathways in the mammalian body; I do Western
blotting to assess protein levels of specific proteins as well
as mRNA and immunonohistochemistry techniques. The use of
metabolomics as a new tool for this is also a focus
area.
